Capitalism: A Love Story



On the 20-year anniversary of his groundbreaking masterpiece 'Roger & Me,' Michael Moore's 'Capitalism: A Love Story' comes home to the issue he's been examining throughout his career: the disastrous impact of corporate dominance on the everyday lives of Americans (and by default, the rest of the world). But this time the culprit is much bigger than General Motors, and the crime scene far wider than Flint, Michigan. From Middle America, to the halls of power in Washington, to the global financial epicenter in Manhattan, Michael Moore will once again take filmgoers into uncharted territory. With both humor and outrage, Michael Moore's 'Capitalism: A Love Story' explores a taboo question: What is the price that America pays for its love of capitalism? Years ago, that love seemed so innocent. Today, however, the American dream is looking more like a nightmare as families pay the price with their jobs, their homes and their savings. Moore takes us into the homes of ordinary people whose lives have been turned upside down; and he goes looking for explanations in Washington, DC and elsewhere. What he finds are the all-too-familiar symptoms of a love affair gone astray: lies, abuse, betrayal...and 14,000 jobs being lost every day. 'Capitalism: A Love Story' is both a culmination of Moore's previous works and a look into what a more hopeful future could look like. It is Michael Moore's ultimate quest to answer the question he has posed throughout his illustrious filmmaking career: Who are we and why do we behave the way that we do? (Run Time – 127 minutes).

Hey there.
I got your information from John Ewing at the Cleveland Cinematheque. He recommended that I get in touch with you. There is this fantastic movie that I really would love to see in Cleveland! It's called "Beyond the Motor City", here is link to the movie: http://www.pbs.org/wnet/blueprintamerica/reports/on-the-road/home/1010/. Is this something you think you could host here in Cleveland? Here is information on setting up a screening: http://www.pbs.org/wnet/blueprintamerica/reports/on-the-road/join-the-tour/1000/.
Do you find this valuable?
